Montreal Gazette Article Shows Agents and MLS are Falling Behind…
A great article from this Saturday’s Montreal Gazette talks about Real Estate on the internet.
The article points out that “The problem with too many real estate search sites, including the Canadian Real Estate Association’s MLS website, is they offer too little information to satisfy a sophisticated user.”
The article also mentions ByTheOwner.com’s French site…”the site www.duproprio.com, where vendors can sell their properties commission-free. The best thing about the site is all its sold properties are listed with price and the number of listing days included.”
Another great point which signals a bright future for ByTheOwner.com is that “Generation Y, the so-called babies of the baby boomers, are technologically advanced, able negotiators and independent thinkers” and that this group of people “prefer to do plenty of research and make their own decisions.”
